Former Mexican president compares Trump to Hitler
The former leader of Mexico on Friday compared Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler as he continues a series of attacks on the Republican presidential candidate.
“Today, he’s going to take [America] back to the old days of conflict, war and everything,” Former Mexican President Vicente Fox told CNN in an interview.

“He has offended Mexico, Mexicans, (and) immigrants. He has offended the Pope. He has offended the Chinese. He’s offended everybody.”
Fox has gone on a media offensive against Trump in recent days.
He insisted on Thursday that there’s no way Trump will convince Mexico to pay for a border wall, as Trump repeatedly claims on the campaign trail.
“I declare — I’m not going to pay for that f—ing wall,” he said. “[Trump] should pay for it. He’s got the money.”
Fox continued: “This nation is going to fail if it goes into the hands of a crazy guy. Democracy can’t take us to crazy people that don’t know what’s going on in the world today.”
Fox doubled down in another interview Friday, repeating that “I am not going to pay for that f—ing wall,” adding: “I am not, and [Trump] should know that, and I am not going to apologize.”
